1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

This case report highlights the need for syphilis re-testing during pregnancy and at labor and delivery when there are high-risk factors present. Our patient, an infant, was evaluated for non-accidental trauma because of the presence of multiple fractures, which could be one of the presentations of congenital syphilis. A high index of suspicion is required for syphilis when an infant presents with multiple fractures. Syphilis testing and re-testing guidelines should be followed strictly so that pregnant women are appropriately treated to prevent congenital syphilis.
